Merc's~ Those moonlit drives.. confessions, transgressions, miles of sun and wind, gossip at the pumps, swerves and bumps, it's all how you shift the gears.. Destination made moments, motor-hum-lullaby, chasing stars, and memory glow, Mercury rising..

Sky...Loved the ending of this. At first I thought it was about the planet, then figured out it was about a Mercury car. Thanks for sharing...Paul ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ |

Sorry the pic didn't work. I supposed there's something to the fact there were two in it that intrigued me. Funny how good writing can lend itself to the imagination. I see so much more than cars in this. Michael |

A very soft take on something that might otherwise be considered an unpleasant scene. Lovely as usual. "How much is real? So much to question |

Thanks Temptress, I had posted this with a pic in the past, of 2 old mercury cars abandoned & almost completely covered in weeds & brush, couldn't get pic to work here though. Anyway..just a little tale of those 2 junkers..metaphors can be taken any where the reader likes. ![]() Sky~ ~ Cherish Everything ~ |
